Malmen Airbase

Malmen Airbase: Malmen Airbase is a Swedish military airbase located in Malmslätt, Linköping.

The base was opened by Carl Cederström in 1912. In the beginning the airbase had only three aircraft but more were bought in the same year. From 1926 to 1974 it served as an independent wing (F 3 Malmslätt) but in 1974 it was put under F 13 Norrköping then later F 16 Uppsala and now F 17 Kallinge. Today the airbase serves as a base for helicopters.

From 2003 the Royal Swedish Airschool has been located here, to train pilots with Sk 60 jet trainers.
